Fear Attempt at Assassination Wher.
Sheriff Is Accidentally Shot.
I
Denver, Aug. 30. Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt delivered three addresses
here, reviewed a military and civic
parade and was the gueat or the Den
ver Press club at a chuck wagon lunch
con at Overland park, where he ate
his steak and biscuit from a tin plate,
and said It was "just great."
From the time the parade started
until it ended there was an uninter
rupted roar of welcoming shouts from
the multitude. The cowboys gavo
their yell, whistles were tooted and
bells were rung. Colonel Roosevelt
was kept on his feet, bowing to the
right and left in acknowledgment of
the salutations.
The streets were a mass of colors
From tbo buildings flags and bunting
were hung out, and on ropes suspend
ed across tho streets banners were
hung, with pictures of Colonel Roose
velt, with the words, "Welcome, Ted
dy," and "Dee-lighted!"
During the last mile of the parade
the first two divisions dropped out of
line and stood at attention as Colonel
Hoosevolt, who headed the third di
vision, passed by. From the review
ing stand the colonel reviewed the re
mainder of the parade.
The first division consisted of Unit
ed States troops from Fort Lot;an and
the national guard of Colorado.
In the second division came th"
Spanish War Veterans, who are hold
ing their national encampment here,
the Army of the Philippines and vet
erans of the foreign service. In the
third division Colonel Roosevelt rode,
escorted by n division of the Roose
velt rough riders, in their familiar uni
forms of khaki, and the Colorado
Sheriffs' association. Brigadier Gen
oral John Chase, adjutant general of
Colorado; Major W. G. Stone, IT. S
A.; Major A. H Williams, James R.
Garfield of Cleveland, O.. ex secretary
of tho Interior, and Clfford Plnchot
of New York, former chief forester,
rode In this division.
Then came the automobile division,
nt the end of the parade. Cowboys In
blue shirts, blue scarfs and khaki
trousers galloped up and down the
lino of march, giving their shrill yells.
There were a dozen bands In the pa
rade, each playing a different tune
and adding to the pandemonium of
Denver's welcome to the former presi
dent. Sheriff Accidentally Shot.
As the parade passed Eighteenth
and Tremont streets, the horse ridden
by J. H. Williams of Delta, one ot the
bodyguard of sheriffs, became fright
ened and Williams' revolver was
jolted from his holster. The gun ex
ploded as it fell to the ground, will
lams was riding behind Colonel Roose
velt and for a moment the police
feared an attempt had been made to
assassinate the former president. The
bullet struck Williams in the leg, but
did riot wound him seriously. He was
lifted from this horse and the parade
went on.
Standing in the Intense heat of the
sun, Colonel Roosevelt reviewed tho
parade with the greatest interest.
When a band approached him, play
ing "There'll Be a Hot Time In the
Old Town Tonight," the colonel beat
time with both hands and nodded ap
provingly to the band loader.
When the Tenth cavalry passed the
colonel carefully noted the form in
which the men were drawn up and
greeted the commanding officer by tip
ping his hat."
Tho passage of the rough rider di
vision was one of tho most picturesque
features of the entire parade. The
colonel took his hat off and peered in
to the faces of the men, occasionally
recognizing men he had known in the
Cuban campaign.
He made a marked effort to show
attention to the national Indian war
veterans and tlio Old Time Cowboy as
cociatlon. Quickly taking off his hat when
members of tho Grand Army appeared,
Colonel Roosevelt left the automobile
from which he viewed the parade and,
going into the street, shook hands
with tho veterans.
SOCIALIST CONGRESS OPEN
WOMEN SMUGGLER IS TAKEN
New York Traveler Hid Pearl Neck
laos In Lining of Hat.
Now York, Aug. 30. Mrs. J. Reyn
olds Adrtnnce of Poughkeepsle, whose
husband is the head of a reaper com
pany, arrived on the liner Baltic and
was caught in one of tho cleverest at
tempted smuggling plots the customs
house has come across for some time.
Secret agents abroad had communi
cated tho fact that Mrs. Adriance, who
was accompanied on hre Journey by
her daughter and son, had bought a
?6,000 pearl necklace In Florence,
Italy, Therefore the customs inspect
ors were on guard when they under
took the examination of her luggage.
Her declarations seemed nt first
glnnce to be n model of particularity.
Everything dutiable she had bought In
Europe and packed in her trunks bore
the sales tickets. She was so frank
in declaring that she had nothing
more in her effects that tho customs
Inspector assigned to the tnsk of un
covering the pearls hesitated to nsk
hqr about thorn. He did so finally,
however, and she assured him with
wide eyed surprise that she had not
bought any pearls.
Then she Insisted on being senrchod
by a matron. This woman official
found a gold mesh bag and n little lace
of small value In Mrs. Adrlance's waist,
and the passenger said she had over
looked them. The search yielded noth
ing further.
Finally the woman weakened and
confessed that the pearls were sewed
In the lining of her hat They were
ripped out and seized, and Mrs. Adri
ance was ordered to report nt the cus
toms house.

ALFONSO IN MADRID AGAIN
Hands of Canalejas Government Great
ly Strengthened.
Madrid, Aug. 30. King Alfonso's re
turn to his capital has strengthened
the hands of the - Canalejas govern
ment and the premier has adopted a
more emphatic tone.
It 13 alleged that Alfonso, while in
England and also while in Paris, "be
came Impressed with the vital import
ance to Spain economically of a spe'edy
and complete regularlzation of the re
ligious associations and will not turn
back in his couise."
Time alone will show If tuis be the
fact. But there is no doubt that
Canalejas Is gaining popular support
rapidly now that promlnenco is given
to the economic aspect of the struggle.
The radicals are subordinating their
hostility to the church as such to bring
into bolder relief the economic priv
ileges enjoyed by the religious com
munities at the expense of the Indus
trial workers as a whole. Canalejas,
when he confionts hi3 opponents in
the cortes, will lay before that body
a startling economic reveTatlon.'
AUTO PLUNGES DOWN BANK
York cotton market on urgent demand
from speculative shorts, who had post
poned covering until the last moment
in the hope that tho Increasing new
crop movement In the southwest might
break the control of the bull leaders.
This price, the highest reached for
cotton for any delivery since the civil
war and exceeding by nearly 2Mi cents
per pound tho highest In tho famous
bull year of 1003-04, which until now
stood as a standard for comparison,
was regarded by many ns the culmi
nating point of the bull movement In
progress here for the last six months,
during a season, which, when It ends
next Thursdny, will go down as tho
most spectacular in the annnls of the
cotton trade slnco war times.
Not a groat many bales perhaps
13,000 actually changed hands on the
ndvnnco from lfi.82 cents, the closing
of last week, to 20 cents for August. At
20 cents an offer from W. P. Brown,
ono or the bull leaders, to Bell lOp.OOO
bales checked the upward movement
and It was tho general Impression
around tho ring that this was a, level
fixed In the open market as a basis
for settlement of the entire August
interest remaining.
In all the bull leaders have handled
spot cotton to the amount of 800,000
bales, valued approximately nt $65,
000,000. But the bulk of this has been
shipped abroad and just how much ot
it has been nctually sold and how
much of It may now be held on con
signments nt foreign points, is uncer
tain. Inasmuch, however, as the bulls'
have handled contracts for many
thousand balcB in excess of those upon
which they have actually rerHvpd cot
ton, they have undoubtedly tnhen
large speculative profits, no matter
how their deal may turn out when
their last bale of cotton has been
sold. In the New York stock they still
own about 100.COO bales
